Where am I? 

People around me do have kink of knocking me unconscious. 

“Huh?”

My hands were tied behind the wooden chair.

My clothes were white. 

Like a prisoner…

I panicked looking around. People surrounded me glaring as if I were a criminal.

I tried finding Vini, Sam or Vicky but no one was there. 

Did they betray… no… maybe I was taken by force…

“WH- where am I?”,I yelled 

People started murmuring. 

“Your act shall end here, lowly being”

People made way for a girl- no a short woman decorated with jewels and in her head stood-

“Crown..?”

“Lower your head, murderer”

A guy behind me pushed my chair down knocking me on the floor

“What do you want from me?”, I yelled at the woman

The room echoed all of the whispers. It was a white throne room where I stood in the middle of the round carpet. It felt humiliating bowing my head on the floor in front of others for a crime i don’t even know about. That lady must be the queen judging from her yellow pentagonal iris. 

“Romara, you may begin speaking the evidences”

“Melezaban, an alias, real name unknown due to amnesia. Found in the forbidden forest, clothes and a dull blade drenched in blood. Reports suggest that there is no wound in her body except a few bruises which can’t be the explanation for her bloody blade. We found a group of thugs that are known to kidnap people, famously known to kidnap Princess Mary, which brings me to my last piece of evidence… Mary Margin has been found dead”, said the guy who pushed me down

The silence spoke from there on 

What in hell did my past self do… 

I looked at the queen. 

“Do you have anything to back you?”, the queen said

I didn’t answer 

“Of course not, even if you weren’t the one who killed Mary… you still killed people with that blade”,the  queen continued

“If we proceed further with your crimes, you appear to be wearing clothes identical to the kidnappers”, Romara continued 

But there was something odd.

Despite hiding her mouth with veil… her eyes…

The queen was smiling.

As if–

“Selsa, I shall proceed with her crimes”,announced a voice

A boy came forward 

His aura pushed me down with force

Who–

Everyone bowed 

His face was painted in white with red patterns, his hair purple with orange tint in the end…

“Ugh..”

A stench filled the room

He glared at me as if visioning I am already dead 

“Lord Yuil, as you can see I have already taken action”,she did a business smile 

“Well you are forgetting, she is a demon who killed my DAUGHTER who is also a demon”

His eyes pierced through my eyes.

Before she could speak another man appeared 

“Lord Yuil is right, demon’s have a separate law afterall”

His aura was calmer, an old man in his 60’s with long white braided hair. 

“Romara, knock her unconscious”,yuil ordered. 

Selsa tched. 

There was that again 

Anicel and their weird ways.

******

“I’m disappointed”, sam finally spoke 

“But we did achieve our goal”,vini said with a fake smile

Vicky silently drank his lemonade in more guilt

“You sold her for your benefit”,he raged

“Oh right! She is criminal and the queen gave her permission to Oclana because we handed her”

Sam went quiet. He knew melezaban was a criminal but didn’t principles never allowed. He reminded himself how he owed Vini and quietly drank his black coffee.
